Joe Sugg and Dianne Buswell have confirmed she is “very much still pregnant”, following, pointing at the image and saying, “that’s not our baby”. Joe hit back at an AI-generated image purportedly showing the couple with their newborn. “I worry for the Facebook generation sometimes with all this AI malarkey,” he joked when he said “that’s not our baby” when pointing at the image. Discussing the photograph, Strictly Come Dancing winner Joe said: “So I had loads of family and friends messaging me being like, ‘Oh, um, congrats on the news. We thought you’d tell us first before the internet.’”

Looking flabbergasted, Joe said: “This is AI. Look, that’s not me. I don’t know who that is, but it’s not me. I mean, I’d take it! I’d quite like to look like that, to be honest. But, that’s not me. That’s not my chin. That’s not my hair, unfortunately.”

Turning his attention to the supposed image of Dianne, he continued: “That’s not Dianne. And that’s not our baby. Although, I do hope he’s that cute.”

Dianne subsequently appeared on screen, visibly heavily pregnant. “I am still very much pregnant,” she declared, nodding whilst lifting her top to reveal her bump.

Flocking to support the pair on Instagram, someone wrote in the comment section: ” It’s so weird that someone even thought to make this picture in the first place.”

A second added: “I knew it was AI because I know you’d actually post about it if it WAS real.” if it WAS real.” Meanwhile, a third shared: ” AI is scary and so many people fall for it!! Look forward to hearing from you both on here when he arrives.”
